After leaving Julian’s office, Ashley met up with Aleric in a quiet restaurant. It had been almost a week since Julian had been demoted to a mere department head. Ashley knew she needed to do something about it to win back Julian’s trust. No matter the cost, she was ready to do anything just to let Julian be by her side again.Aleric sat up in his chair and studied his sister’s face. “Look you stressed, sis,” he teased. “You should rest unless you will start to look twice your age.”Ashley narrowed her eyes at Aleric and shook her head. “You sure are relaxed. I mean, you finally got engaged to the girl of your dreams, how will you relate to me?”“That’s true though, but you are my sister. Of course, I am worried about you.”“Then do something about Sydney if you are that worried. Julian can't even stand my sight at the moment. I will lose him if this goes on.”Aleric scoffed. “What is it about that man that gets you so worked up? He is a nobody now. Why are you still bothered about

After leaving the prison, Sydney checked on the woman's daughter in the orphanage. When she got to the orphanage, she didn't see the child playing in the playground with the other kids and asked about her whereabouts. It was then that she was informed that the girl had been rushed to the hospital that morning due to her sickness. She collected the hospital details and went there. When she got to the hospital, the girl had already been treated and was lying in bed. She had just had a major surgery and was still unconscious. Sydney watched the little girl through the hospital's transparent door and sighed. She didn’t understand why the little girl's situation tugged at her heart. Maybe it was because it reminded her of the child she had lost. A sharp ache throbbed through her chest. She rubbed her chest and blinked the tears that were clouding her eyes. Losing a child was very unbearable to her, she wouldn't wish it on even her own enemy. A doctor stopped by the girl’s ward and

Jade shook her head, finding it hard to believe that Sydney could walk out of her. She scoffed and picked up her handbag. That bitch had really grown some nerve after her divorce with her brother. She gripped her bag and walked out of the conference room. Once she was outside the company building, she brought out her sunglasses amd wore it. She fanned her face as she waited for her chauffeur to pick her up.She looked up at the sky and groaned. Everything and everyone was annoying her. Why was it scorching so much?“What are you doing here?” A voice demanded.Jade jolted when she heard the voice and looked back. Her eyes widened when she saw her brother. She looked at the logo of the company building before looking back at him. “This isn’t your company,” Jade pointed out. “I should be the one asking you that question instead.”Julian shook his head and came up to his sister. “You went to see Sydney, didn’t you?”“What did you expect me to do?” Jade questioned back. “Wait here and

Just as she had said, Sydney went home in her own car. Not long after her car parked in the parking lot, Aleric’s car joined hers. They left the parking lot together and walked into the house. They met Rafeal and his wife, Maya, sharing a tub of ice cream at the dining table. Rafeal perked up when he saw Aleric and Sydney. “Good timing,” he said. “We were just about to have this.” He gestured towards the tub of ice cream. “Are you two interested in joining us?” Sydney stopped to look at the ice cream. Without answering him, she continued walking and climbed up the stairs. Rafeal pouted as he watched Sydney walk away. He looked back at Aleric and smiled sheepishly. “You are joining, right?"Aleric waved his hand. “No, I’m tired.” He gestured to the dining table and added. “Enjoy.”With that, he climbed up the stairs, leaving Rafeal alone with his family. Rafeal picked up the tub of ice and read its label. He frowned. “Is there something wrong with the ice cream?” Maya leaned clos

It was late in the night when Jade arrived home. Upon entering the living room, she removed her heels and wore a more comfortable pair of fancy slippers. One of the maids came to meet her and collected the stuff she was carrying. After seeing Sydney and getting frustrated with her brother over not wanting the alimony, she had gone shopping to relieve her stress. The maid juggled the multiple shopping bags in her hand, one of them nearly fell causing her to become irritated and alarmed,She narrowed her eyes at the maid and pointed at the shopping bags, “Everything in that bag costs more than you are worth so you better be careful in how you treat it,” she snapped.“I’m sorry, ma’am,” the maids said and beckoned to another maid walking by to assist her in carrying the bags. The other maids collected some of the bags and started walking towards the stairs leading to Jade’s bedroom. Jade slung her handbag over her shoulder and walked behind them. She heard laughter coming from her daugh
